Soul

by Viki de Lieme

Imagine a well-functioning world of steel and machinery where true life is impossible and perfection is the only result. In this world there are no mistakes, no feelings, and no questions. Until Soul arrives.
Soul, the only robot in Roboland who somehow has feelings, ventures out to reawaken all the other robots. With his four-pawed-friend, Nova, they prove that everything is possible.
What might look like a middle-grade book on robots, is a heartfelt and humoristic parody on modern society. Any child, and adult, who has ever felt like they didn't belong, will find themselves in Soul, and his journey will inspire anyone to seek gratitude, authenticity, and acceptance.
Oh, and there's a dog, too, and we all know that dogs change everything.
